Long Jiu was leaning back in his chair and was sleeping, and it was rare for him to sleep peacefully during this time.

Guli sat across the table from him, and this was writing something quickly on a piece of paper, not scribbling in some places.

"Alright, Your Highness, it's time for you to return to your dormitory and rest. Gu Li finished writing, folded it, and pushed it in front of Long Jiu's eyes.

Long Jiu opened his hazy eyes, the bloodshot in his eyes had not decreased at all compared to the last time, and the fatigue between his eyebrows had become thicker.

"Your Highness, I suggest you have a good rest recently, otherwise I'm afraid you won't last long. ”

With a wry smile, Long Jiu picked up the piece of paper that Gu Li had folded and opened it and looked at it, "Is this my basic course of action for the next three days?" ”

"It's the best. Gu Li was very sure of her judgment, "Your Highness, please rest assured. ”

Long Jiu's smile was a little warmer, and he folded the paper and put it in his arms, "Of course I don't worry, with you, I have escaped several assassinations, and it is all your credit to be alive until now." ”

Gu Li said quietly: "Should Your Highness consider increasing the number of guards, as well as reducing the number of outings, especially such an undisguised outing behavior that comes to me." ”

Long Jiu smiled, and only then did he see a little lightheartedness, "It's already at this time, so naturally I don't have so many scruples, and I feel safest with you, so I can sleep well for a while." ”

Gu Li didn't like Long Jiu's words, but there was little room for insistence on opposing them, these days. Long Jiu's state is really getting worse and worse, as if he can't fall asleep every day.

"Your Highness, you are a prince. I don't think I should be forced into this state anyway, the previous assassinations have indeed been avoided, but if His Highness continues like this, I am afraid that there will be more than one bad luck. ”

Long Jiu showed a tired smile and a bit of a hint of recklessness, "Then let me stay here a little longer, I can also have a good rest." ”

Gu Li said solemnly: "Your Highness, you have to understand. Because of your frequent visits, my current identity has long been suspected, and I noticed a few days ago that there are a lot of inexplicable people watching around. It should be all thanks to your Highness. ”

"What does it matter. Long Jiu didn't care, "They don't dare to touch you, I am a member of the royal family, and the struggle for royal power is part of the tradition of the Longyuan Empire." Although the death of a prince the Great was furious. But as long as this competition is not over, the emperor will not interfere too much with the princes and princesses, which is also a test, but you are the honored guest of the empire, if anyone dares to touch you, it is against the empire, and the emperor will kill him mercilessly. ”

"But if there are VIPs involved in the struggle for imperial power, they may also be directly eradicated by the emperor. ”

Long Jiu smiled a little proudly this time, "That's why I want you to help me alone, after all, the little brother of Tianxian has the name of an imperial official." Moreover, your strength alone is also within the tolerance range of the Emperor, not to mention that you have nothing but intelligence analysis and the formulation of protective plans. I didn't get too involved in this game, you belong to a reasonable foreign aid, and this foreign aid is only available to me, and no one else has it. ”

"It's almost safe to say that every time I come to you, it's safe for a short time. Long Jiu smiled, "Sitting here, people can relax." ”

Gu Li had to admit that what Long Jiu said was reasonable, although she didn't like this kid who obviously had other plans for herself to come to her frequently and didn't leave.

Think about your determination when you left the desert border, and endure everything.

"I heard that there will be a hunting exercise tomorrow?"

Long Jiu couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard Gu Li talk about this, "Yes, this is the tradition of the Longyuan Empire's sacrifices, the emperor will take the princes and princesses out of the city to ride and hunt and practice martial arts, in fact, when the princes show off in front of the emperor, there are often fights." ”

"That means you're not in a good situation. ”

Long Jiu shrugged his shoulders, "No, I'm just bored, this kind of thing is meaningless, if it weren't for the tradition left by my ancestors, I really wouldn't want to participate in such a martial arts exercise, but there is no way, even the emperor can't be absent every year, let alone a prince like me." ”

"Do you want me to protect you secretly?"

Long Jiu immediately laughed, "No need, in front of the emperor, face to face, those princes and princesses, one counts as one, who am I afraid of Long Jiu?

Gu Li nodded slightly, "In other words, the three-day riding and hunting martial arts is a relatively safe day." ”

"Relatively yes, be careful with food and water, it's really safe to be around the Emperor. ”

"That's good. Guli thought thoughtfully.

Long Jiu saw that Gu Li seemed to be a little absent-minded today, and suddenly asked with an interested expression, "I heard that the eldest lady of the Blood Alliance came to visit you yesterday. ”

"You know everything. Gu Li looked disgusted.

"You are my reinforcement now, I can't let you be robbed by others, of course I have to pay more attention to your situation. Long Jiu didn't hide it at all, and asked with a smile, "What did that woman say, it is rumored in the royal family that that woman is very powerful, but the emperor does not allow her to get close to the imperial family, she has never been able to use it, this time it won't be ready to attack you, right?"

"It's none of your business. Guli looked bored.

"Why is it none of my business!" Long Jiu suddenly came to his senses, "That woman is a member of the Blood Alliance, there is a deep grudge between her and the little brother Tianxian, and it is naturally the same as you, if you come to help me now, I naturally have the responsibility to ensure your safety for the little brother Tianxian." ”

Gu Li stood up and glared at Long Jiu, "It's a private matter between women, even that little ghost won't ask me, Your Highness, you'd better be self-aware." ”

Gu Li looked at Long Jiu condescendingly, with an expression of "go well or not", which made Long Jiu very helpless, but he was thick-skinned enough, and he still couldn't sit there, but his expression was much more serious, "The people of the Blood Alliance have always behaved strangely, and this eldest lady is one of the most powerful people, I admit that you are very powerful in intelligence and deployment." But in terms of scheming, you don't even have a tenth of mine, for that eldest lady. The best thing you can do is not to believe anything, and I think the little brother will agree with me. ”

Gu Li exhaled helplessly, "Got it...... You better go back quickly, I also have something to do today, remember the road map I gave you, I have inspected those places, there will be no problem. Otherwise, if you die, I won't be responsible. ”

Long Jiu smiled and stood up. "Notify me if you need help. ”

"Yes. ”

After driving Long Jiu away, Gu Li returned to the room and closed all the doors and windows, then took out a letter from his arms and looked around again. It's like being afraid that a person will suddenly pop up in the room.

Make sure no one will find out what's on this letter. Gu Li looked at it in a daze.

It was a very short letter, only three or two lines, and the handwriting was sloppy and ugly—you don't have to think about it to know that it is an idle word.

This letter was brought by the eldest lady yesterday, and Gu Li has read it countless times, but now she can't help but want to read it a few more times.

Looking at it, Gu Li felt her face blush and her heart beat, and she was about to tear it apart as soon as she grabbed the letter. "Stinky little ghost!

But the hand holding the letter stopped in mid-air, and Gu Li slowly reopened the letter. Smoothing out the folds just now, resting his chin on the table, he looked helplessly at the crumpled letter, like a poor puppy.

I was in a daze for a while......

"At this time, what kind of ...... are you doing?" muttered, and Gu Li quickly took the letter into her arms again.

Touching the letter in her arms again and again, Guli opened the door and went out with a depressed face.

At this time, Tian Xian, who was cursed by Gu Li, was planning with the four girls and cats in a dilapidated abandoned house.

Tianxian was pacing back and forth, saying something, and the four girls used Juanxiu's small characters on the side to record all the content of Tianxian on the paper word for word.

"Brother Tian?" the fourth girl suddenly asked.

"What's wrong?"

"Words like 'stinky woman', isn't it ......" The fourth girl smiled, "Although Gu Li is very familiar with Brother Tian, how can she always call a girl's family like this." ”

Tianxian scratched his head, "It's always called that, or don't you call it a fool or a fool?"

"Brother Tian, little brother......" The four girls looked complaining.

"Okay, okay...... Then let's go back and let her choose a favorite name, so it's always okay, it's always weird to call a name......"

The four girls were helpless, as long as they agreed, and then suddenly remembered something, "Brother Tian...... What are you going to call a concubine in the future?"

Tian Xian didn't want to think about it and replied: "The fourth sister is fine!"

The fourth girl thought about it, smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm used to calling this concubine." ”

After recording the words of Tianxian, the four girls rolled up the note, thought about it and opened it again, and marked the words "four sisters" at the end of the note, and then re-rolled the number and handed it to Tianxian.

Until now, no one knew that Tianxian could exchange news with the outside world, and Gollum could turn into a spirit kite to travel between other places and the city, which gave Tianxian great convenience.

Sending Gollum to act quickly, Tian Xian felt a little more confident in his heart, "I hope that this stupid guy Gu Li will be quicker, so that we can leave here sooner." ”

"Brother Tian has thought about how to deal with it once the plan fails?"

"Take the underground water veins. Tian Xian smiled, "Although I don't know where this cold water vein leads to at all, but since it is living water, there will naturally be an exit from the ground, if the plan fails, we will enter the water vein and drift with the waves, where we can go, we can only resign ourselves to fate, in case we are taken to some strange place, hmm...... Probably not, how could I be so unlucky as a handsome boy with such good luck. ”

The fourth girl laughed out loud, "The concubine believes that Brother Tian has excellent luck, even if he takes the road of water vein, he will be safe." ”

Tian Xian patted his cheek, blinked and said: "That's a last resort, I won't use it until I have to, now we should go! That stupid Luo Du should have been out of trouble and looking for us, there is not much time, now go do something more important." ”

The most important thing that Tianxian said was to return to the rock wall behind the miscellaneous area again, and carefully groped around the rock wall, as if he was looking for something.

This time, the four girls had serious expressions, looking at the tall black stone wall, with a little expectation in their eyes.

"Brother Tian, have you already done it over there?" the fourth girl asked softly.

Tianxian nodded, "It won't be wrong, there is movement, but it will take a little time to determine where it is." ”

Back and forth, Tian Xian wandered around here for half an hour, and then sat down on the spot, took out a pen and paper, and quickly calculated what to do.

The fourth girl was a little curious to see Tian Xian writing and drawing on the paper, although the handwriting was still ugly, but this time it was obviously counting some numbers, and a lot of symbols and graphics were used.

"It's math, I'll teach you when I have time. Tian Xian smiled at the four girls and continued to calculate.

"Math ......" the four girls were at a loss......

Although Tian Xian did not go to a serious school, but the little girl in the grocery store opposite the place where she lived for the longest time was studying elementary school, but she was stupid, and Tian Xian gnawed textbooks completely out of a malicious approaching purpose, I have to say that this method is still quite smart, except when she was chased by the little girl, she was also quite well-behaved, especially when she couldn't do math problems and ran to ask for help.

In Tianxian's view, basic mathematics is still very useful, at least when the enemy comes to the door, it is much more convenient to take the route that has been calculated long ago, and what Tianxian is best at is calculating the distance, such as from the door to the station, from the back alley to the hospital, from the hidden door to the coffee house where you can take temporary refuge, and the subtle gap between the front and back doors, which side to go to the nearest intersection The distance is shorter.

There were a few times when the calculations of the day were successful, and the old liar was almost caught and beaten, and finally escaped.

Tian Xian was sure that the Holy Spirit Temple had already started, because they had received news from Gu Li, and that news contained some definite things they had seen in this city as evidence, and they had to believe it.

The Wasteland Sword could clearly feel the sound of vibration in the rock wall, and what Tianxian needed to do was to rely on accurate hearing to calculate the distance and angle of these sounds......

and the distance difference between the two times when you come here to listen to the sound sample, and then calculate the approximate speed of the opposing forward.

Tian Xian felt that he should become a mathematician.

Soon, the day had its own results.

Looking back at the rock wall, a faint smile tugged at the corner of Tianxian's mouth, "It's faster than I expected, and...... These guys are so smart. ”

The fourth girl's eyes were full of doubts, "Did Brother Tian find anything?"

Tian Xian was about to explain, when a tall figure collided from behind a tall pile of debris not far away.

As soon as Luo Du saw that Tian was idle here, he immediately roared and rushed over.

Tian Xian rubbed his forehead, "This guy's nose is smart enough, and he found it here at once...... Send him away first. ”――

Steady these two days (to be continued......
